Thank you @Vikingoutwest for your wishes.

 

I had my Interview today at 1.30pm and I'm happy to share it went good.

 

My officer was nice and polite . After swearing , My legal name was confirmed and phone number, my date of gc issuance.

I had some updates to share to him(address and a short 3 day trip to Canada), so we updated as he went along that specific sections. He then went over the form with Yes and no questions. 

After that I was asked civics questions:

 

1. What does the United States constituntion do?
2. What is the Supreme law of land?
3. How many senators are there?
4. Name One state that borders Canada?
5. When is Independence day celebrated?
6. Name the president in world war 1?

 Reading : When is Columbus day ?

Written: Columbus day is in October.

 

I passed Civics , English reading and writing.

 

He then asked to review updates and took signatures.

After this , Officer congratulated me and said if any thing required they will let me know, otherwise  Oath ceremony will be in this or next month.

 

Around 4:00pm : I received email that I'm placed in line for Oath :)

 

I wish you and everyone in this long journey , a wonderful and a smooth one  

:)

Meet your new citizen :)

The oath ceremony was simple, nice and exciting. 

We sang " this Land is your land" song .. my fav song ! ...speech was from the judge and the announcer, the told us, you now have 2 birthdays, one is Oct 4th, the other is your original BD.

I signed up to vote and for the passport (advice, fill the form before you get  to the ceremony to save time) and bring a picture !.

Thank you everyone, it was a long journey, and wish for you all the same successes and the smooth process.

I will keep checking on April filers to make sure wall ended citizens !

@sw88 congratulations! There's no same day passport. Expedited process takes 2 weeks. You can apply for passport the same day you get your certificate if this was your question. Enjoy your new home!

Hi all!  Just updating - husband filed N-400 in April in Minnesota.  They estimate an almost 2-year processing time initially, but it eventually went down to 1 year.  We moved to Massachusetts at the end of August.  His case was immediately transferred to the Boston field office, and about a week later he got notice of his interview.  He had the interview on 10/4 and passed!  Now we're just waiting for the oath ceremony.

 

Good luck to everyone!  We're all so close to the end ❤️  And thanks to all those that have shared their experiences and lent support to one another during this long and difficult journey.
